< Psalmi 9 >
1 Zborovođi. Po napjevu “Umri za sina”. Psalam. Davidov. ALEF Slavim te, Jahve, svim srcem svojim, ispovijedam sva čudesna djela tvoja.
For the Chief Musician. Set to “The Death of the Son.” A Psalm by David. I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart. I will tell of all your marvelous works.
2 Radujem se i kličem tebi, pjevam imenu tvome, Svevišnji!
I will be glad and rejoice in you. I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
3 BET Dušmani moji natrag krenuše, padoše i pred licem tvojim pogiboše.
When my enemies turn back, they stumble and perish in your presence.
4 Jer ti se zauze za moje pravo i parbu moju, ti sjede na prijesto - sudac pravedan:
For you have maintained my just cause. You sit on the throne judging righteously.
5 GIMEL ti pokara pogane, pogubi bezbošca, ime im izbrisa dovijeka.
You have rebuked the nations. You have destroyed the wicked. You have blotted out their name forever and ever.
6 Dušmani klonuše, smrvljeni zauvijek, ti im gradove razori - nesta im spomena.
The enemy is overtaken by endless ruin. The very memory of the cities which you have overthrown has perished.
7 HE Ali Jahve dovijeka stoluje, postavi prijesto svoj da sudi:
But the LORD reigns forever. He has prepared his throne for judgment.
8 sam po pravdi sudi krug zemaljski, izreče pucima osudu pravednu.
He will judge the world in righteousness. He will administer judgment to the peoples in uprightness.
9 VAU Jahve je tvrđava tlačenom, tvrđava spasa u danima tjeskobe.
The LORD will also be a high tower for the oppressed; a high tower in times of trouble.
10 Nek' se uzdaju u te koji znaju ime tvoje, jer ne ostavljaš onih što ljube tebe, o Jahve.
Those who know your name will put their trust in you, for you, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek you.
11 ZAJIN Pjevajte Jahvi koji prebiva na Sionu, razglašujte među pucima djela njegova,
Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion, and declare among the people what he has done.
12 jer ih se spomenu kao osvetnik krvi i siromaškog jauka ne zaboravi.
For he who avenges blood remembers them. He doesn’t forget the cry of the afflicted.
13 HET Smiluj mi se, Jahve: pogledaj nevolju u koju me vrgoše neprijatelji moji, od vrata smrti izbavi me
Have mercy on me, LORD. See my affliction by those who hate me, and lift me up from the gates of death,
14 da naviještam sve hvale tvoje na vratima kćeri Sionske, da radostan kličem zbog spasenja tvoga.
that I may show all of your praise. I will rejoice in your salvation in the gates of the daughter of Zion.
15 TET Pogani padoše u jamu koju sami iskopaše, zamka koju potajno staviše uhvati nogu njihovu.
The nations have sunk down in the pit that they made. In the net which they hid, their own foot is taken.
16 Jahve se iskaza i sud održa; grešnik se spleo u djela svoja.
The LORD has made himself known. He has executed judgment. The wicked is snared by the work of his own hands. (Meditation, Selah)
17 JOD Nek' grešnici odu u Podzemlje, svi pogani što zaboraviše Boga. (Sheol )
The wicked shall be turned back to Sheol, even all the nations that forget God. (Sheol )
18 KAF Jer siromah neće pasti u zaborav zauvijek, ufanje ubogih neće biti zaludu dovijeka.
For the needy shall not always be forgotten, nor the hope of the poor perish forever.
19 Ustani, Jahve, da se ne osili čovjek, nek' pogani budu osuđeni pred tobom!
Arise, LORD! Don’t let man prevail. Let the nations be judged in your sight.
20 Strah im, o Jahve, utjeraj, nek' spoznaju pogani da su smrtnici!
Put them in fear, LORD. Let the nations know that they are only men. (Selah)
